I'd like this to happen, for all of the privacy, freedom and decentralization reasons. I think the only way it is actually going to happen is if computation speeds/prices significantly outpace network speeds.
Take for example an AI that watches your facial expressions and helps you around the house. It might be cheaper/easier to have the computation happen locally and avoid the cost of streaming all of that data to a centralized location all of the time. Then again, having all of the data in one database may provide the AI with enough benefits that it is worth sending it across the wire - with aggregate data, valuable aggregate patterns can be found. It's hard to say at this point.
